Election Despatch With Preeti Choudhry: Bihar's Great Divide: Youth Flee For Jobs, Women Voters

This special report from Bihar captures the raw voices of its people, weighing their options amidst a high-stakes election. The discourse is dominated by leaders like Nitish Kumar, Tejashwi Yadav, and Narendra Modi, alongside emerging figures like Chirag Paswan and Prashant Kishor. A central conflict emerges between the ruling NDA’s narrative of development and fear of the RJD’s past, versus the opposition’s promises of employment to stem the tide of mass migration. A young man forced to leave for work poignantly asks, ‘If I get food at home, what is the need to go out?’. The electorate is torn between acknowledging improved roads and electricity under Nitish Kumar and the crushing reality of unemployment, corruption, and failing industries. Women, empowered by schemes like ‘Jeevika’, where many have received ₹10,000, have become a decisive vote bank, though their support is deeply fragmented.
